'He did me a favor': Trump says he's 'insulted' by Putin's fake Harris endorsement

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump suggested Thursday that he might be "insulted" if Russian President Vladimir Putin actually endorsed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

Trump made the remarks while speaking to the Economic Club of New York.

"Putin came out today, he endorsed Kamala, and I didn't know, was I supposed to call him up and say, thank you very much, I appreciate it," Trump opined. "But he endorsed Kamala. I have a feeling, I don't know, I don't know exactly what to say about that."

"I don't know if I'm insulted or he did me a favor," he added.

In fact, Putin was most likely joking when he said this week that he backed Harris after the Biden administration sanctioned Russia for interfering in U.S. elections.

Putin claimed he would support Harris just as he had backed President Joe Biden.

"She laughs so expressively and infectiously that it means that everything is fine with her," the Russian dictator teased.
